Answer:

The acceleration of the system is 1.401 m/s² and

The tension in the cord is 100.902 N

Explanation:

Let the 9 kg mass be m

Let the 12 kg mass be M

By Newton's second law of motion we have

For the 9 kg mass, T - mg = ma and for the 12 kg mass we have T - Mg  = -Ma

Here we took the upward acceleration as positive a of the 9 kg mass and the downward acceleration of the 12 kg mass as -a

Solving for T for the 9 kg mass we have

T = mg + ma

Substituting  the value of T in to the 12 kg mass equation, we have

mg + ma - Mg = -Ma or  a = (\frac{M-m}{M+m} )g therefore the acceleration is

1.401 m/s²

and the tension is T = mg + ma = 9×(9.81+1.401) = 100.902 N

What is the couple force​
Vinvika [58]

Explanation:

 a couple is a system of forces with a resultant moment but no resultant force. A better term is force couple or pure moment. Its effect is to create rotation without translation, or more generally without any acceleration of the centre of mass.

A ball is thrown vertically upward from the edge of a bridge 22.0 m high with an initial speed of 16.0 m/s. The ball falls all t
KonstantinChe [14]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the kinematic equations of motion. We will start calculating the maximum height with the given speed, and once the total height of fall is obtained, we will proceed to calculate with the same formula and the new height, the speed of fall.

The expression to find the change in velocity and the height is,

v_f^2-v_0^2 = -2gh

Replacing,

0^2-16^2 = -2(9.8)h

h = 13.0612m

Thus the total height reached by the ball is

H = 22m+13.0612m

H = 35.0612m

Now calculate the velocity while dropping down from the maximum height as follows

v_f^2-v_0^2 = 2gh

Substituting the new height,

v_f^2 - 0^2 = 2(9.8)(35.0612)

v = \sqrt{687.2}

v = 26.2145m/s

What cause-and-effect relationship is described in this
nydimaria [60]

The term cause and effect relationship relates to a situation where an effect is directly traceable to a cause.

<h3>What is cause and effect relationship?</h3>

The term cause and effect relationship relates to a situation where an effect is directly traceable to a cause. The question is incomplete and the article was not mentioned.

A typical example of cause and effect relationship is that increased fossil  fuel use is leading to a rise in the average temperature of the planet.

olga55 [171]

Answer:

A). A few of the positive particles aimed at a gold foil seemed to bounce back off of the thin metallic foil.

Explanation:

Scientists decided to change the model of the atom when they discovered new evidence that showed 'few of the positive particles aimed at a gold foil seemed to bounce back off of the thin metallic foil.' On this ground, <u>Rutherford concluded that atom is mostly made up of empty space and thus, he proposed a nucleus model of atom in which the atom comprises of the tiny and positively charged nucleus is surrounded by electrons with a negative charge</u>. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
